MLC week (2/8/16 email)

This week we had MLC and it was amazing, as always! We had a little
performance by Elder Funk (Elder Flunky), Elder Lambert (Elder Lame),
Sister Bunderson (Sister Perfec), Sister Lambert (Sister Tion), and
Elder Bunderson (Elder Record) from the mission office about turning
in baptismal records neatly and promptly. The pictures are down below.
The entire time they were talking about how the sisters are so much
more organized and prepared than elders (so true for the most part),
and I was dying laughing. I love the WVM office volunteers! President
Ferrin started it off by saying, "Adam was given a help mate because
we men need help. You sisters are already perfect." Oh man I just wish
all of you could meet these cute people in the WVM.


All the zone leaders, sister training leaders, assistants, and senior couples in the WVM!

These two cute girls, A and IB, are 9 and 10 and we started teaching
them recently. Oh man they're awesome! The first time we met them,
their mom invited us in and said that she's actually a member. She
converted in Brazil then moved here and got married and hasn't been to
church in America. So we shared a little Mormon Message about the 
Book of Mormon with her and her girls and asked what their thoughts 
were. First A just paused deep in thought and said, "I want to get baptized." 
The Spirit was so strong. Then IB paused for a bit and said, "I do
too." They're so smart and A has been asking her mom to go to all
kinds of different churches. She's been to 8 different churches now
looking for the right religion, and she's only 10! Anyways, we invited
them to be baptized on February 27, but they said they'd have to talk
their dad into it. I've only met him once, and he's super nice but
wasn't interested in sitting in on the lessons. In our last lesson we
asked what the Holy Ghost feels like and A was really thinking again
and just said, "It's what makes you know everything will work out no
matter what. Even when you feel like nothing is going right, you know
He's there for you because you feel the Holy Ghost with you." Then IB
smiled and said, "What she said."
